Hey Alex,
I'm looking forward to this, I know it's going to be fun! We've become so accostumed to each other's Thud tactics online, this will make a very nice change.
Good luck!

No problem, just a few notes on your last move:
I was quite surprised by that last move. I'd expected you to
T F2 - J5
or anything else that would've moved that Troll out of the way. That would need me to
d E14 - E4 x E3
after which you of course
T F5 - F1 x E4 x E2.
That would give you a two for one exchange.
But with your T E3 - H6, I will do
T E3 - H6
and that will buy you just one.

Well explained up until you try and move the troll i last moved i think that might be illegal on 2 counts
Ahum

I entirely missed that one! I thought I had all Troll-options covered...
Ah well, nothing for it but to do the only available move:
R H8 - J9
T G7 - H7
d K15 - K9
T H7 - D7 x G8 x E8
I assume that the takeing shows how i arrived at D7?
As you guessed i would have prefered to take only one and be next to the Thudstone i hope i have not fallen for one of your cunning plans by taking those 2 dwarfs.

d G9 - H8
Not much plans over here, cunning or not. I'm still trying to get over that attack you did a few moves ago.
T J7 - M10
d J15 - J10
T L3 - H6
Grumble mumble
d L14 - L7
T D7 - F9
d D13 - G13
T F9 - H7
Let's try to rock this game into action again
R J9 - K8
T F5 - J5
d O6 - N5
T J6 - K6
d L7 - K7
T K6 - J7
I think things are just about to get interesting as our chinese friends would say.
We have chinese friends?
R K8 - L7
I considered d K7 - J6 x J7, but that would me leave far too vulnerable, with three dwarfs lost.
J7-J7 xJ8 xH9 xH8 still gets me three
even tho thud board does not think it legal i am sure it is in KVT do you agree?

I would prefer them as friends rather than enemies as there quite a lot of them

Clutching at straws here. Maybe it's better to go down with a bang, is what this strategy is called

as you have a musical bent down like a Led Zeppelin might be better analogy
i do think i might have won here it is a bit of a surprise as only 3 or 4 moves back i was losing on points.

R L7 - K6
Go ahead and finish me before I leave. I'm here all evening, let's get this over with.
T H6 - J7
R K6 - L6
T J7 - L7 x K7
I think i should have it next move
KVT could grow on me it seems that advantage can swing more quickly than in orig Thud but it is an interesting game in its own right.

d K9 - K6 x K8 x H7 x G6 x J5 x M7 x L7
Ha! Got you there, didn't I? Bet you didn't see that one!
Actually, I didn't either. So let's stick to a boring
d L10 - K10
because you don't even give me a chance to get a Troll or something
.
Well done Alex.
